Chapter 4 Voice and IP Communications
Cisco CallManager Express
Cisco CallManager Express is a solution embedded in Cisco IOS Software that provides call
processing for Cisco IP phones. This solution enables the large portfolio of Cisco
multiservice access routers to deliver features similar to those of a key system or low-end
private branch exchange (PBX), thereby enabling deployment of a cost-effective, highly
reliable, IP Communications solution for the small office. Customers can now scale IP
telephony to a small site or branch office with a solution that is very simple to deploy,
administer, and maintain. The Cisco CallManager Express solution provides customers with
a low-cost, reliable, feature-rich solution for a deployment of up to 100 users.
Key Features

branch office needs
• Provides integrated IP telephony services for multiservice access routers that allows
customers to deploy one device in their office to address all their business needs,
simplifying management, maintenance, and operations, and delivering a lower total
cost of ownership (TCO)
• Robust set of key system and low-end PBX capabilities—Delivers a robust set of
telephony features for the small office, and delivers unique value-added capabilities
through Extensible Markup Language (XML) that enhance the productivity of the end
user and of the business, and that cannot be delivered by traditional solutions
• Investment protection and ease of upgrade to centralized call-processing
solutions—Simple software or firmware upgrade capabilities
• Remote maintenance and troubleshooting using Cisco IOS Software command-line
interface (CLI) or Web-based GUI—Acts as a standalone call-processing engine for IP
phones located in the branch office
